The Wedding night and a Dance to Remember

That night, Sakura and Syaoran had their reception at Sakura's house. Once everyone had left, Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo, Eriol, Syaoran's family (Including Meiling) and Sakura's family had a nice dinner. By 8:00, people were beginning to yawn, and Sakura and Syaoran announced that they were ready to leave.

Once they arrived back at Syaoran's apartment, They took Eshira and put her to bed. Once they were changed, Sakura sat down on the bed and watched Syaoran grinning at her. He came over and sat next to her, and she couldn't help but feel the need to stroke his muscled chest (He was wearing a pair of P.J pants, and no shirt) and bury her head in his neck.

"So, how's it feel?" he asked her. "What to be married?" She asked. He nodded. "Well not much different, except that I am very happy, and in disbelief right about now" She said smiling at him. He grinned back. "Well," He said an evil grin on his face that suggested he was up to no good "If we weren't married, would I dare to do this?" He asked tackling her to the bed in a tickle attack. He pinned her to the sheets by her arms and said "Well?" "Yes" she said, pretty much seriously, but with a smile "You would" "Why you little..." He said and began tickling her mercilessly. "No! Stop!" Cried Sakura, laughing from his torture "I'll use the shield card" She threatened. "You wouldn't Dare!" He said grinning as he continued tickling her, and she continued to laugh uncontrollably.

Suddenly, in an amazing feat of strength, Sakura managed to flip Syaoran over, so that now she was on top of him and was inflicting the torture. "Ha! Got you now!" She said triumphantly as he laughed, completely at her mercy. Or so she thought. He flipped her back over, tickling her now. After a few minuets, he stopped, and looked down at her. She stared back at him, heart pounding, and breathing heavily. He leaned down, kissing her eyelids. "I love you" He said. "I love you too" she whispered back and they began kissing.

Sakura woke up slowly, very warm and comfortable. She went to roll over, but was stopped by a pair of arms pulling her closer. She looked up, seeing Syaoran. She was laying facing him, arms wrapped around him, head tucked under his chin, face buried in his neck. She wondered what had woken her up, when she heard Eshira crying. She pulled away slowly, so as not to wake up Syaoran, but did anyway. Syaoran stirred and opened his eyes. "Sakura?" he asked looking down at her. She smiled as Eshira cried. "Baby duty" she said grinning "So you ready for father duty?" she asked playfully. He sneered elegantly at her, but got up as well. she stared at him. "I was joking" She said. He grinned at her. "And is that supposed to make a difference?" She rolled her eyes as they walked out of the room.

Sakura and Syaoran lived together in Syaoran's apartment with Eshira for a year, when they decided that it was too small, and moved into a house not too far from Tomoyo's on the same street. Now they were 18, in Grade twelve, and Sakura was a part time model, and Tomoyo (Of course) designed her costumes.

It was Friday, and Sakura was at the studio with Tomoyo. She was a little later then usual because Tomoyo had insisted that she have one more photo taken. "Here Sakura, that was the last shot." Tomoyo told her. "You can keep that outfit. It looks good on you" "thanks Tomoyo" Sakura said as she went over to grab her bag. She was wearing a white cotton knee-length dress with pink flower embroidery along the bottom. She brusquely walked out of the building, and began down the sidewalk to her house. She glanced at her watch. "Crap!" She whispered fiercely. "Syaoran will have the police out searching for me by now" She wasn't exactly exaggerating much either. Somehow Lin Yao's silence had made Syaoran even more worried for her well being, and on more than one occasion, he had gotten worried and had Kero and Yue out searching for her when she had just run into Tomoyo or something and was 5 minuets later getting home.

In truth, Sakura had almost forgotten about Lin Yao, and about the Prophecy. It had been nearly two years since the last time and she thought that Lin Yao had finally given up.

Sakura dashed up the stairs and in the door of her and Syaoran's house. As she closed the door behind her, she was suddenly attacked by her 2 year old daughter. "Hey honey", She said kneeling to kiss Eshira on the forehead. It was at that moment when Li Yelan came into the room. Sakura smiled and stood up, holding Eshira in one arm and her bag in the other. "So has my beloved husband called a search party yet?" She asked with grin on her face. Yelan smiled back "Well I did have to stop him and convince him to wait another ten minuets before he started panicking." Sakura shook her head and set Eshira down and began up the stairs. She laughed shaking her head as Eshira grabbed Yelan's arm and dragged her into the TV room saying "Come on grandma!"

Sakura walked into the bedroom, and saw him sitting on the bed head in his hands. He stood up when he heard her enter. "Sakura?" He asked walking up and taking her in his arms. She wrapped her arms around him, hearing his heart pounding. As he pulled away, she looked at him. "My god your trembling!" She said. He nodded. He kissed her, and Sakura could taste the fear on his lips. "I was so afraid I would lose you" he whispered. Sakura looked at him "Syaoran, What's wrong?" Sakura asked sitting down on the bed with him. He shook his head, smiling, but she could tell that is was forced. "No of course not, I was just worried that's all" Sakura knew better. She knew better then anyone that something was bothering him, but she also knew that it would do no good to try and force him to talk about it. "Good" She said smiling at him. She leaned over kissing him, and then she said "I'll go get something to eat alright? then Tomoyo and Eriol will be over to get ready for the dance okay?" He nodded. "Okay" she said kissing him again. She patted his leg and walked out. Syaoran lay down on the bed. "Oh Sakura, if you only knew"

After a quick supper, the doorbell rang, and Sakura and Syaoran went to go get it. Tomoyo ran inside with an amazing amount of energy, hugging Eshira who had come running to the Door. Eriol came in with much less energy, patting Syaoran on the back, and Hugging Sakura, kissing her hand.

After she had said hello to Syaoran and Eshira, Tomoyo dragged Sakura upstairs to get ready for the annual Grade Twelve Winter Ball. She pushed Sakura into her bedroom, and began pulling various large packages out of her enormous bag. Sakura sweat dropped until Tomoyo pulled out her dress. Here Sakura, put this on she said handing Sakura a pale Grey silk skirt. Sakura did so, wondering why she was wearing a skirt under her dress. She didn't have to wait long to find out. Tomoyo pulled out The Dress and helped Sakura put it on. It was strapless and very silky to the touch. The dress was a pale pink with grey trim. All around the top of the dress, it was lined in grey fur. There was also grey fur around the waist. The top of the dress (The part that covered her stomach and chest) had embroidery of grey pearls. The bottom 'skirt' of the dress had four slits that came almost up to her waist, revealing the grey underskirt. Sakura turned so she could see the back of the dress. it was just as elegant as the front, with it's low back.

Tomoyo took her to the washroom. She carefully applied the pale pink lipstick, silver eyeliner and pink eye shadow. Sakura looked in the mirror, surprised at how beautiful she looked. Tomoyo Put in earrings with grey pearls, and a matching bracelet, necklace set of grey pearls. Then she put on Sakura's engagement and wedding rings. "Tomoyo, what are you going to wear?" Asked Sakura. Tomoyo smiled "You'll find out. Now go put on your shoes" Tomoyo told her handing her the last package, and chasing her out of the washroom closing the door behind her.

Sakura shook her head and put on the grey flat shoes. About ten minuets later Tomoyo came out wearing her dress. It was not nearly as extravagant as Sakura's, but it was still very beautiful. It was a deep indigo, reflecting her hair and eyes nicely. It had one strap, the other side coming down in almost a sash across her chest. It too had a low back, accenting her pale creamy skin. It also hugged her body giving her the sleek sophisticated look. She struck a pose, "So, how do I look?" She asked Sakura smiled at her best friend. "You look wonderful Tomoyo" "Come on, I'm sure that husband of yours is just dying to see what I have designed for you this time.

Tomoyo came down the stairs as Eriol and Syaoran looked up. Eriol's jaw dropped nearly to the floor as she came down. Tomoyo giggled, and Syaoran grinned rolling his eyes at his friends behaviour. As Eriol took Tomoyo's hand, kissing it, Sakura began down the stairs. If Eriol's jaw had dropped to the floor a few minuets earlier, It was nothing compared to what Syaoran's jaw was doing now. He regained his composer quickly, and rushed over to 'help' Sakura of the stairs like a gentleman. (As if she needed help anyway :) oh well, he was being nice). He kissed Sakura. "You are so beautiful" He told her brushing a lock of her long hair out of her face. Tomoyo had Braided Sakura's long luxurious auburn hair into a lose braid, letting a few strands hang by her face.

Tomoyo peered out of the door, seeing the limo, she called everyone's attention, and they all got into it, and left for the dance, leaving poor Yelan with her energetic granddaughter.

At the dance, All of Sakura's friends complemented her and Tomoyo about the dress. No one noticed the figure hidden in the Shadows. They all danced for a while, having fun. Syaoran suddenly, and unexpectedly took her into his arms, and took her to the balcony. They sat there together for a while, just staring at the moon. Sakura turned her face up kissing him tenderly. "Do you want to get out of here?" He asked "Sure" she said knowing exactly where he was thinking of going. So they went.

They sat down on a bench in the middle of penguin park, staring at the moon. There was no need for words, since they knew what was in the others heart. It was definitly a night to remember. But little did they know what was yet to come.
